In Karnataka, over 43.5 lakh notices have been delivered as part of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, with 91,278 Form 7 applications received between June 16 and October 4, according to Chief Electoral Officer V Anbukkumar. The notices are issued to electors whose names fall under the "No Mapping" and "Anomalies" categories, and no voter has been deleted from the electoral roll so far.
The filing of an objection does not result in deletion, and objections are examined by Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) who must conduct a hearing before making any decision.
